Some day, I must photograph more of City Hall. Designed by Saltaire's architects, Lockwood and Mawson, and opened in 1873, it has 35 statues of British kings and queens around the exterior, supposedly in chronological order. William IV (seen here) has presumably observed a lot of life passing in front of him.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful architecture, Jenny!
ReplyDeleteIt appears to be a mix of newer and older buildings. Maybe not overall the most beautiful I have seen, but it is good that it has that City Park in the center.
